Paswan urges street food vendors to evolve self regulation

Food Minister Ram Vilas Paswan today asked street vendors to evolve self regulatory code and a set of guidelines to provide safe and hygienic food.
Taking a round at the National Street Food Festival here, Paswan said the government can also extend its help to street vendors in this endeavour.
"Indian street food is popular all over the world for its range of flavours. There is a need to create awareness about hygiene and best practices among food vendors," the minister said in an official statement.
He added the Department of Consumer Affairs in collaboration with the industry is already working on it through 'Surkhit Khadya Abhiyan'.

Paswan also appreciated the concept of the festival for showcasing diversity of India's street food at one place.
